Description
Elongate; subparallel; subdepressed; shining; yellowish with eyes, antennae, and apical ½ of elytra black. Head: vertex impunctate, medial sulcus absent; frons not projecting; not depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; slender; antennomere 1 clavate, longer than 3; 2 transverse, ½ length of 1; 3–5 elongate, subequal in length; 6–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 5; 11 2× length of 10, rounded at apex; 1–3 punctate, with scattered setae; 4–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight for basal ¾ then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle rounded, not produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin straight; disc flattened; surface with scattered punctures along basal and lateral margins; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.0–1.1 mm; pronotal width 1.4 mm. Scutellum: triangular; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; sutural angle with minute tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; moderately punctate-striate, humerus almost impunctate, rows converge and unite apically; elytral length 4.3–4.4 mm; elytral width 1.9 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; last sternite with apical margin deeply rounded in male, broadly truncate in female. Leg: slender; impunctate; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 5.9–6.0 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia chevrolatii and Cephaloleia elegantula. It can be distinguished by the clavate antennomere 1 and the punctate elytral humerus.
Host plant
Adults have been collected on Heliconia sp. (Staines 1996[9]); Heliconia lathispatha Benth. (McKenna and Farrell 2005[11]) (Heliconiaceae); Calathea latifolia Klotzsch (Marantaceae), Heliconia catheta R. R. Smith (Heliconiaceae) (Meskins et al. 2008[13]); Calathea lutea G. Mey.
